Screen Scene's Juniper Calder Wins Editing Award at Kinsale Sharks

A high point of the Irish creative industry calendar, this year's Kinsale Shark Awards took place from the 22nd to the 24th of September.

Screen Scene mainstay, Juniper Calder, was awarded Bronze in the Irish Film Craft – TV/Online or Cinema Best Editing category at this year's awards ceremony, for her work on the moving Focus Ireland ‘Tackle Homelesness‘ spot. 

Full post production on the spot took place at Screen Scene. Allen Sillery was the Flame artist on the film; Donal O’Kane supplied the grade, while Sinead Bagnal was the post producer.

Aiming to raise money for Focus Ireland’s Tackle Homelessness campaign, the stirring three minute film aired during RTE’S Six Nations coverage in February 2016.

The film shows various members of Ireland’s homeless community recite the words of Ireland’s Call, with help from Jonathan Sexton and RTÉ commentator Ryle Nugent.

Directed by Richie Smith, and produced by Max Brady for Pull The Trigger, the spot was created by Boys and Girls, where Derek Doyle was the Agency Producer.
